A TASTE OF THE WEST

The west of England is a foodie region, just as renowned for creative street eats as it’s dazzling array of Michelin rated restaurants. The area is home to many local award-winning artisan producers many of which open up their doors to visitors throughout the year.

Artisan Producers

With a host of craft breweries, vineyards and distilleries, as well as opportunities to discover locally brewed ciders, take a trip behind the scenes for a tour or tasting with some of the region’s finest producers. See behind the scenes at 6 O’clock Gin Distillery, immerse yourself in an Edwardian cider farm with Thatcher’s Cider or sample exquisite wine on an Aldwick Estate vineyard tour and tasting. If locally brewed beer is more your tipple, then you’ll be spoilt for choice with city centre breweries such as Bristol Beer Factory, Left Hand Giant, Wiper & True and The Bath Brew House. Discover some of the best local producers on a city food tour with Savouring Bath on a culinary journey of the city.
